Leven Hot Shots!

On Tuesday 8th June, Mrs Williamson and I took a group of 12 Year 4 children to take part in the athletics Hot Shot programme at the David Lloyd Centre in Hull. The children took part in several events, including 30m sprint, standing long jump, chest push, javelin and relay. All of the children competed with a fantastic team spirit and had a fabulous time! Most of the events involved the children trying for their own personal best, however they did take part in a relay race competing against the other 5 schools which were there. Taylor was picked out for particular effort in 2 events, the touch base and javelin throw. It was a pleasure to spend the afternoon with the children as they were so well behaved and enthusiastic. The event itself was extremely well organised and we hope to take part again next year. Not all of the results are known yet, so keep your eyes peeled for next Tuesdays edition of the Hull Daily Mail where the results and more photos will be published.

Feelings Fun!

Over the past few weeks Year 2 have been thinking about feelings and how we can show are feelings through colour, music and sculpture. We designed masks showing different facial expressions and today we made them! We thought about what materials we could use to make the facial features. Even our student, Miss Sotherby, had a go!

Midnight Walk

While all of you were tucked up in your beds on Saturday night, 7 of our staff took to the streets of Sewerby to complete the Midnight Walk in aid of the Sue Ryder Care charity.

We were blessed with a lovely evening and bacon butties at the finish. It took us 2 hours to complete the 6 mile walk, and we even managed a sprint finish - hence the rosy cheeks in the photo.
